NHTSA Complaint #10615254 — 2008 CHEVROLET AVEO

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON., DASHBOARD CLOCK AND CD RADIO ALSO WENT OUT. THE CHEVROLET SERVICING DEALER SUGGESTED THAT THE SERVICE CODES REFLECTED A SHORT IN WIRING AND THE DASHBOARD HAS TO BE REMOVED TO CHECK THE WIRE HARNESS FOR THE SHORT. THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME $315 , MANAGER CONTINUED TO STATE ALSO THE SENSOR MODULE FOR THE AIRBAG MAY BE DEFECTIVE. WHY DO THEY CHARGE FOR DIAGNOSIS WHEN THEIR DIAGNOSIS MEASURES CANNOT FIND THE PROBLEM AND WANT TO CHARGE ANOTHER $315 FOR FURTHER DIAGNOSIS?I WITH THE I'VE CHECKED WITH OTHER AVEO OWNERS AND SOME HAVE THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. I DO BELIEVE THERE IS A FAULT WITH THIS CAR. I DO NOT KNOW IF THE AIRBAGS WILL DEPLOY IF THEIR IS AN ACCIDENT WITH THIS CAR. *TR
